Anyone having really bad smells from the antminers? I had one running in my game room, and I got a horrible headache, could be cheap glue or something??  These things are going in my garage as soon as I have some wireless antennas.  Probably breathing in some mercury/glue mix.  

Ants do tend to give off a pretty bad smell when running.

Hopefully it's harmless and Bitmain didn't use anything that would give off harmful fumes given the completely exposed caseless design of the Ants.

Having said that, I'm not sure I would want to run Ants in an enclosed room that didn't have a constant supply of fresh air.
